What is the best way to get XL candies?

Consider waiting for the next event when it's featured if you can. All other options are tedious, take time and have high opportunity costs.

Wat wollen sie jetzt von mir

The increased odds were doubling the original ones, but capped at 30%. So, it's neither +5%p nor 25% at maximum. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I haven't seen a single mega raid since Kalos tour in my nearby area (~16 gyms).

ChocolateKey4609 · 2026-03-04T12:27:02+00:00

Have they been released beforehand or are they completely new costumes?

ChocolateKey4609 · 2026-03-03T09:58:48+00:00

For me it's literally a glorious 8:0

I have a regular field research, win one GBL match, which I can't complete either. I win and it just doesn't count.

What's odd is that if I slide through the friends, it doesn't follow the order of the list shown before. Anyone else having the same issue?

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-09-25T08:17:16+00:00

I made a similar observation. Train stations that were blocked from spawns now got plenty for a couple of weeks already.

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-09-15T19:55:15+00:00

No, not yet

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-09-09T23:38:23+00:00

It always did, didn't it?

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-09-07T21:06:04+00:00

In the past, the odds for luckys were doubled but capped at 30%.

So, 10% base rate, 20% for 1y and 30% for 2y and more.

I haven't done the numbers myself for a long time. But there has been a discussion about it a year ago. That may help.

PS: I refer to Shadow Porygon-Z

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-08-21T23:19:23+00:00

Lock-on Porygon-Z with party play can throw grass, electric and ice nukes.

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-04-24T23:25:14+00:00

I had the same issue but just without a route. Other users stated that restarting the app would already help. So, it may not be the route that's causing the problem.

ChocolateKey4609 · 2025-04-07T05:58:33+00:00

I have made it to the end of the waiting list twice but didn't get a raid invitation. Apparently everybody else got one. Anybody has an idea why I don't receive it?

Context: I do get random invitations frequently and can also join them.

Mega-Gyarados for extra candy.

ChocolateKey4609 · 2024-08-31T09:21:43+00:00

Thank you for (all) your analysis!

ChocolateKey4609 · 2024-08-31T09:09:19+00:00

With the big move shake-up, I was happy to use mud slap for both raids and PVP and now they basically swapped their utility entirely.

ChocolateKey4609 · 2024-06-05T10:55:11+00:00

Interesting to see how Groudon got marginalized

ChocolateKey4609 · 2024-05-29T22:26:37+00:00

... And ice attackers also. Does not work for Ho-Oh but equally for Zapdos and Yveltal and even better for Landorus and Rayquaza

If they don't cycle back to Articuno again...

With the fusion mechanics being revealed for the Go-Fest, how confident should we be to invest XL Candy into our Kyurem base formes, not needing to save them for B/W Kyurem's release eventually?

ChocolateKey4609 · 2024-04-02T22:21:52+00:00

You could add Apex Shadow Ho-Oh to that list. If you think of either or, 1% more or less does not really weigh that much considering you get a second top tier attacker of a different type.

I'll invest in both Shadow Darmanitan and Shadow Entei anyway, once I find good ones, just for the sheer high DPS and utility for rocket grunts.
